WORSE THAN SMALL. FOX.
! Great Danger Which Hsnaees IN tnsusIieisus
T.. Public:
The Brompton Hospital for con:
'umptives In London; reports that
over fifty people out Of every hundred
:onsumptives are victims Of constipat.
ed and inactive kidneys.
Consumption is one of our national
diseases, and reportgoes to prove what
has often been said in our columns dur
ing the last eight years that kidney
troubles are not only the cause Of more
chan half OF the cases ofconsumption,
out of ninety out Of every hundred
other common diseases. They who
have taken this position, made their
claims after elaborate investigation,
and their proof that they have discov-
cred specific for the terrible and
,tealthy kidney diseases, which have
become so prevalent among us, is wise
and convincing.
We have recently received from them
fresh supply of their wonderful al.
vertising. They have challenged the
medical profession and science to in
vestigate. They have investigated,
and those who are frank have admit:
ted the truth of their statements:
They claim that ninety per cent. of
diseases come originally from inactivS
kidneys, that these inactive kidneys
allows the blood to become filled with
aric acid poison; this uric acid poison
in the blood carries disease through
every organ.
There is enough uric acid developed
in the system within twenty.four hours
to kill half dozen men.
i This being a scientific fact, it requires
only ordinary wisdom to sec the ef-
ect inactive kidneys must have upon
The system.
If this poison is not removed, il ru-
ms every organ. If the bowels, stom-
ach or liver become inactive, we know
It at once, but other organs help them
out. If the kidneys become constipat.
I'd and dormant, the warning comes
later on, and often when it is too late;
because the effects are remote from
the kidneys and those organs are not
suspected to be out of order.
Organs that are weak and diseased
are unable to resist the attacks of
this poison, and tho disease often
takes the form OF and is treated as g.
local atf1iction, when the real cause
Of the trouble was inactive kidneys.
Too many medical men of the pres
ent day hold what was fact twenty
years ago, that kidney disease ia in
durable, according to the medicines
authorized by their code. Hence, they
ignore the original cause of the disease
itself, and give their attention to use
less treating of local effects.
They dose the patient with quinine,
morphine, or with salts and other
physics, hoping that thus nature may
cure the disease, while the kidneys con-
tinue to waste away with inflamma-
ton, liberation and decay, and the
victim eventually perishes.
The same quantity of blood that
passes through the heart, passes
through the kidneys. If the kidneys
are diseased, the blood soaks up this
disease and takes it all through tho
system; Hence it is, that the claim is
made that Warmers safe cure, the on
y known specific for kidney diseases,
cures 80 per cent. Of human ailments,
because it, and it alone, is able to
maintain the natural activity of the
kidneys, and to neutralize and re-
move the uric acid, or kidney poison;
as fast as it is formed.
If this acid is not removed; there is
inactivity OF the kidneys, and there
will be produced in the system paraly-
sis, apoplexy, dyspepsia. consump-
ton. heart disease, headaches, rheu-
matism, pneumonia, impotency, and
all the nameless diseases of delicate
women. If the poisonous matter is
separated from the blood, as fast as
it is formed, these diseases, in q ma
jority OF cases, would not exist.
1t only requires a particle OF small
pox virus to produce that vile disease;
and the poisonous matter from the
kidneys, passing all through the
system and becoming lodged at differ
ent weak points, is equally destructive,
although more disguised.
II it were possible fo< us to see into
the kidneys, and how quickly the
blood passing through them goes to
the heart and lungs and other parts
Of the system, carrying this deadly
virus with it., all would believe with
out hesitation what has so often been
stated in advertisements in khoao
columns, that the kidneys are the
most important organs in the body.
They may regard this article as an
advertisement and refuse to believeit,
but that is a matter over which we
have no control. Careful investiga-
ton and science itself are proving be-
You'd a doubt that this organ is, in
tact, more important than any other
in the system as q health regulator,
and as such should be closely watch
ed, for the least sign of disordered &C.
ton.
